ESPN subscription launched - £9 for Sky Sports viewers
	
	
		Just seen this - you get it for £9 if you are an existing Sky Sports viewers.
 
Have not seen any mention of boxing though , has anyone else :confused:
 
If there's no boxing and that will remain on Sky then I dont think I will take out this subscription.
 
£5 was what I had in mind ;)

I think they are going to pick up Setanta's schedule, so there will be something like 25 Prem Games, UFC & Boxing m- May have to subscribe

		Would be extremely surprised if they created a brand new channel solely for those 20 odd games a season
 
They`ll most prob cater for american sports and i fully expect to see them announcing US boxing cards eventually

 The Prem games is just one of things they will have. Apprently ESPN are quite 'friendly' with Sky, so they may be able to get more Prem games aswell

		If you have virgin media, you get it free if you have the biggest tv package.  Its just replaced Setanta.  
Virgin TV Size XL - Digital TV - Virgin Media
It's in HD too!
I hope they get the Setanta boxing schedules.
Edit
